Nice safe mountain town. Little too quiet for me
Over 3 years ago

I spent 6 months living on a ranch in the Helena valley. This was during the population boom Montana experienced after covid. Helena has some great mountain biking  More

Overcrowded

It was a great city when I moved here 2o years ago but due to over crowding and building apartments the traffic is awful. People are rude and drive like idiots  More
